@ahnestkitchen: For dinner last night, we had Spinach Fried Rice. One of my favorite fried rice recipes that packs in a lot of iron and protein. Great for kids and adults. You can find the full recipe in our cookbook, UMMA, on page. 277. Cookbook at the link in bio. Summarized below, serves 4: INGREDIENTS: For the rice: 1 1/2 cups (312 grams) short- or medium-grain white rice 2 cups water 2 tablespoons (20 to 28 grams) salted butter, cut into 3 pieces, divided (we used 20 grams of butter tonight; @KerrygoldUSA 1 teaspoon sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 5 tablespoons Kikkoman Hon Tsuyu soup and sauce base @Kikkoman USA For the eggs: 1 teaspoon neutral cooking oil 3 large eggs ¼ teaspoon sugar (optional) ¼ teaspoon salt (optional) For the spinach: 1 pound (454 grams) flat-leaf spinach, chopped fine For the beef: 8 ounces (227 grams) thinly sliced beef brisket, pat-dried, cut into rough 2‑inch pieces (hot pot shabu beef rolls work well too) 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce Sesame oil INSTRUCTIONS (summarized): 1.
